Chickensheds vision is a society that enables everyone to flourish. We believe this can be achieved when:
Everyone has equal opportunity to make a difference
Young people are empowered to influence change in our society
Community perspectives can be broadened by the voices and stories of the people within them
Chickenshed contributes specifically to this system through performing arts programmes and projects which seek to:
EMPOWER INDIVIDUALS
Building social skills of individuals
Establishing platforms and links for individuals to connect with their community
WIN HEARTS AND MINDS
Demonstrating the value of inclusive methods and ideology to unknowing groups
Providing a platform for stories to be shared that will develop empathy and change perspectives
MAKE INSTITUTIONAL AND SOCIETAL CHANGE
Creating partnerships through which inclusive practice and theory can be transferred and embedded
Contributing to campaigns which champion social inclusion
